A San Francisco Board of Supervisors panel has rejected Mayor London Breed s fourth non-LGBTQ nominee to the city s historic preservation advisory body due to there being a lack of LGBTQ representation on it. The decision raises questions on if the nomination can survive a vote before all 11 supervisors.
The supervisors rules committee voted 3-0 at its meeting Monday (April 5) against seating Christina Dikas, an architectural historian and cultural resources planner who works for the firm Page and Turnbull. The vote had been expected as all three committee members had told the Bay Area Reporter they would not support Dikas when her nomination was announced.

Come its March 3 meeting San Francisco s Historic Preservation Commission will no longer have anyone from the city s LGBTQ community serving on it. The lack of representation comes as numerous queer historic issues are expected to go before the advisory panel in the coming months, from landmarking of LGBTQ historical sites to designating queer-owned legacy businesses.
The mayor chooses the oversight body s seven members and the Board of Supervisors confirms the appointees. Four of the seats are currently up for appointment. While Mayor London Breed has renominated two commissioners for new terms straight allies Diane Matsuda and Chris Foley she did not reappoint the panel s two gay members, Jonathan Pearlman and Aaron Hyland, who had been serving as the commission s president.
